1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

The utilization of biochar for peroxymonosulfate (PMS) activation has gained attention due to its functional groups and porous structure. Nonetheless, its practical application is limited by challenges in regulating reaction rates and the short catalyst lifespan due to natural organic matter (NOM) and anions. Furthermore, most studies have focused on batch-type experiments. To address these limitations, this study introduced a combined electrolysis (E) and biochar (BC) system for PMS activation in a flow-through reactor to remediate dissolved p-nitrophenol (p-NP) as a model pollutant. It is hypothesized that the E-BC-PMS system enhances degradation through three mechanisms: (1) simultaneous activation of PMS by biochar and electrochemical reactions, (2) adsorption of contaminants onto biochar, and (3) formation of diverse reactive species. The E-BC-PMS system removed 99.9 % of p-NP and showed the highest removal rate constant (0.497 min
